The Minor Prophets are, sadly, not very popular. While there are no flaws in these inspired books, they can be difficult to understand, in part because of their historical distance from us. Professor Daniel Timmer has written Judah among the Empires in the hope that Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah will become better understood and contribute to the theological, experiential, and practical enrichment and growth of God's people. The exposition of each book begins with a discussion of its historical context that sheds light on the theological issues it deals with. Addressing the themes of sin, repentance, judgment, and deliverance, these books speak to God's people of all times, reminding them of that day when God will eliminate all evil and consummate His rule and His relationship with them. Intended for group or individual Bible study, this book features discussion questions and resources for further study at the conclusion of each chapter.
